About Riverview North

Situated on a meticulously manicured 11-acre campus adjacent to Grosse Pointe, Riverview Health & Rehab Center North offers short-term rehabilitation and long-term skilled nursing care with 180 private or semi-private rooms for residents of all ages. All beds are dual-certified by both Medicare and Medicaid, and Riverview North also accepts most other private healthcare insurances and patient-pay.

The aging of America’s baby-boomers is a well documented phenomenon, and as our seniors live longer, provision must be made for the long-term care of individuals whether healthy or with complex and chronic healthcare needs. At Riverview North we are focused on meeting this growing need in our community and stand ready to provide a comfortable home for those residents who need assistance, including medical therapy for those aged patients who also require sophisticated medical and nursing treatments.

Long-term care residents enjoy bright and comfortable surroundings together with the support of a nurturing staff. All of Riverview North’s professionals strive to maintain a “home-like” atmosphere for residents and work to assist each in their assimilation into the Riverview North “family.”

Friendships develop quickly between residents through the recognition of shared interests and participation in a variety of enjoyable activities. These friendships have no boundary with respect to age or background since all long-term care residents commingle readily. Resources exist to support residents in pursuits from recreation to study and religious observance. And just as each patient soon comes to feel a part of the Riverview North family, so too, are their relatives soon adopted as well. Parties, celebrations, club meetings and other gatherings are all venues for family visitation and the maintenance of those bonds of love so important to each resident.
